When they said the time to hide was mine, br I hid back under a thick grape vine. br br br And while I was still for the time to pass, br A litle gray thing came out of the grass. br br br He hopped his way through the melon bed br And sat down close by a cabbage head. br br br He sat down close where I could see, br And his big still eyes looked hard at me, br br br His big eyes bursting out of the rim, br And I looked back very hard at him.
